The Motorola Moto Z works very well for answering and initiating calls by voice. I forget now because it’s been a while, but you have to set up carefully – – call them and ask be elevated to level II or III assistants. I had to set up another way, not using the Google stuff. If you have trouble let me know and I will try to find my notes. It announces my call and I say answer, hey [whenever you name your phone] – – call mom – call 800-555-1212 on speakerphone – – call on speakerphone (who do you want to call on speakerphone) – mom

My computer guy is setting up an iPad for me for calls also and something came out Thursday or Friday that will make the voice stuff better. Maybe it’s a new phone OS (iOS?). If you don’t know what I’m trying to say let me know and I’ll ask him.

IOS13 voice control is flakey at best, I've almost given up with it until Apple improve it. It is not reliable and sometimes responds and other times does nothing. Battery drains really quickly on both iphone and ipad with it switched on, I've had to fit a USB socket to my chair to keep the phone powered from the chair batteries. I bought a new ipad pro because of the voice control feature and now use it with an R Net mouse module as Apple finally added bluetooth mouse support. Use chair joystick and occasional voice control and it is almost usable. Mouse might be not as usable on a phone.

The most annoying part is if you leave voice control on it'll react to any conversation you are having so you end up switching off and having to use Siri to start it. It just hasn't been thought through fully.
